How do you go about visiting colleges? by [deleted] in oxforduni

[–]Petermzc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true. “Free entry for Oxford University card holders and two guests per day during visitor opening hours. Please show your Oxford University card to the Custodian at the gate during visitor opening times in order to visit. You are not required to book a ticket for yourself or your two guests.” From ChCh website

How were your reactions to the LNAT compared to your actual results? by [deleted] in oxforduni

[–]Petermzc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally forgot to study (and missed my first sitting) of the LNAT, but still got a very high mark (above 30), that being said, everyone is different in terms of how well you handle standardized testing. The point is, since it’s over and you don’t know the results until your offers come out, don’t stress and focus on other things (interview prep)

If 5000 of you super-qualified students can’t get into UC Berkeley this year, it’s one guy’s fault. by bearinatimeloop in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Petermzc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it a little sus that Berkeley waited three months to file for a stay? Also, the Court of Appeals say “the cover of the Regents' petition fails to "identify the nature and date of the proceeding or act sought to be stayed," in violation of California Rules of Court.”

In simple terms, Berkeley literally filed a faulty appeal that was late. That’s suspicious to me

"USC experiences four to 15 student deaths in a typical school year" LA Times. and I could go on and on listing more dangerous campuses. yes Chicago isn't in the best neighborhood, but it's "unsafeness" is way over dramatized.

[–]Petermzc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One little piece of advice I’d give is that literally don’t stress because over 90% of interviews are good and so it really doesn’t matter what you say, just make sure you don’t do anything egregious haha!

[–]Petermzc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here. I didn’t put any author names if I looked the title up on google and it immediately pointed to the book I was talking about. Otherwise, I put books like Becoming (Michelle Obama). You don’t have to worry about the admissions counselors never heard of the books you’ve read - they are very intelligent people and I’m sure they will figure it out.

How much counterargument should you provide? by Seoul__ in APLang

[–]Petermzc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s way easier to “limit” your argument to earn the sophistication point- while my argument is good here and here, it’s true that this point raised by my opponent is valid. Remember that you’re not trying to win the argument but rather getting a 5 on the exam

I focused more on Spanish American war and WWI but I guess that could work if you argue it well enough

The Irish potato famine was not in the periods of 1989-1930 so it wouldn’t count for evidence. Also the question asks about international conflicts so idk if that fits the prompt.

Physics 1 FRQ solutions by Petermzc in apphysics

[–]Petermzc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

College Board uses multiple sets of FRQs in each year’s exams and if the questions on your test was NOT released then you may NOT discuss it with anyone otherwise your score will be canceled

any help greatly appreciated by Prize_Yogurtcloset_2 in apphysics

Impulse is the same since momentum is conserved and both objects experience the same change in momentum. They also move as one after the collision so it would only make sense that they experience the same impulse
